PORT ISLAND STAKES 1600m Track: FIRM |

|---|---|---|---|---|
|
Genuine tempo from A Shin Deed leading Rhinebeck. DANON CENTURY (1) is a handy type who resumes after a break of nine weeks. Only appeared once last prep when he finished 11th over 1600m in the G3 Sekiya Kinen at Niigata. This far easier and excels fresh. Form at this distance is strong with three wins from five starts and looks a top chance this level. SUBMARINER (10) is a talented entire who tackled a tougher race at his last run on May 9 and finished 11th behind Trovatore over 1800m in the G3 Epsom Cup at Tokyo. Backmarker who keeps coming. One of the leading chances. IN VOGUE (13) was an impressive first-up winner last time out in an easier race over 1600m at this track, getting home by a neck. Has a strong second-up record and can go on with it. VIP DAISY (15) is back from a break of three-and-a-half months. Raced below par at her only appearance last prep when 11th over 1800m in the G3 Fuchu Himba Stakes at Tokyo. Among the better hopes.
